Pincushion Protea! ❣️
This South African bloomer is officially called Leucospermum cordifolium. Although originally orange, the flower now also comes in yellow and a reddish colour. The sturdy leaves are slightly hairy and point upwards along the stem. I love using these for customers who like something unique or tropical! 🌴 If you are looking for a long-lasting flower this is a good option- Protea’s can survive up to two weeks! 🙂

They are native to the temperate and subtropical regions of all continents except Australia, New Zealand and Antarctica.

Found these Oleander trees and had to pose in front 💕 Oleander grows to a height of 8 to 12 feet and spreads to an area of about 10 feet when fully grown. Make sure your oleander is getting full sun and the soil around the shrub is kept constantly moist. Then prune back the plant to about half of its size, making cuts just above a leaf node. Flowers will develop on new wood as it grows.🌱🌿🌳🪴

Orchidaceae, commonly known as the orchid family, is a well known, large diverse family of flowering plants. 🌞 Most orchids require water only once a week, overwatering the plant can cause to rotting in the soil! These babies can take anywhere from 9 to 14 months for an orchid to complete a life cycle! My favorites are orchids with spots like these! 😍

White Country Rose 🤍 not only do they smell delicious but look at how huge they are 🥰 I opened these up by holding them upside down and twisting rapidly! That is a method commonly used to open up roses that naturally have volume. 👍

Feeling as pretty as these peach carnations ✨✨
Carnations start to bloom in late spring, usually May. 🌱 Depending on the location and variety, their growing season can last deep into summer; like roses and hydrangeas, regular cutting and care of blossoms will stimulate new buds and extend a plant's bloom time! 😏
